Hey, this is Kyle Eidleman from Southeast Christian Church, and I'm going to thank you for listening to the message today.

As we open up the scriptures together, I pray that this message inspires you, challenges you, and is the right word at just the right time in your life.

Enjoy the message. It is always good to be back. I hope you realize how rare it is.

I mean, Kyle is so generous to allow me to come back and to preach. And I don't ever want to take

that for granted. I feel so incredibly blessed to have Kyle as a friend, but more so to have him as

my pastor. And this is an incredible

church that has blessed so many different people, and it's been a huge blessing to me and to my

family, and I want you to know that. Get your Bibles out, if you would. Get your handy-dandy

Colossians note taker out. This has caused Kyle a lot

of consternation, hasn't it? I mean, the dude is relatively unflappable, but I think that

this thing has really grabbed him, and the fill in the blanks has really messed with his mind.

And I understand because back about 20 years ago, we used to have a Wednesday night service

and we had fill in the blanks every Wednesday night.

And so when you preached on a Wednesday night at 10 o'clock on Wednesday morning, you

had to have your outline turned in and then you had to

that night make certain that you actually filled in every blank as you preached and it was an

awesome responsibility and a little bit intimidating I remember one Wednesday night after

I preached the service ended I said Immediately, 15 people in line.

I thought, wow, I must have really said something

that sparked some interest.

First guy shook my hand.

He said, Dave, he said, you forgot to tell us
